Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of atomization technology, and more particularly to an inhalable atomizing device. Background Technology

[0002] Electronic cigarettes, also known as virtual cigarettes or e-cigarettes, have a flavor similar to, and often more diverse than, traditional cigarettes. They are primarily used for smoking cessation and as a substitute for cigarettes. With the diversification of products, many e-cigarettes have expanded beyond basic functions to include peripheral features such as lighting effects, making them more entertaining. Developing effective lighting effects for e-cigarettes has become a key research focus for manufacturers. Utility Model Content

[0003] This application provides an atomizing device that has good lighting effects and does not affect the user's vision when the user inhales.

[0004] This application provides an atomizing device, including an oil cup, a housing, and a light-emitting component. The oil cup includes a housing with a suction port at one end. A first recess is provided on the outer side wall of the housing, extending to the end of the housing opposite to the suction port. The housing is located on the side of the housing opposite to the suction port and includes an extension disposed within the first recess and connected to the side wall of the first recess, forming a receiving cavity between the extension and the bottom wall of the first recess. The light-emitting component is disposed within the receiving cavity. The oil cup includes a light-transmitting area, which is at least corresponding to the light-emitting component.

[0005] This application places the light-emitting component on the side of the oil cup. The light emitted by the light-emitting component illuminates the volatile liquid inside the oil cup and is emitted to the outside of the oil cup through the light-transmitting area, which can obtain a better lighting effect. In addition, the light emitted by the light-emitting component intersects with the user's line of sight when sucking through the suction port, which helps to reduce the impact of light on the user's vision.

[0006] In some possible implementations, the housing has a suction tube inside and a liquid storage chamber located outside the suction tube. The oil cup includes a reflector disposed on the wall of the liquid storage chamber. The reflector is used to reflect light incident on the housing, which helps the atomizing device achieve better lighting effects.

[0007] In some possible implementations, there are multiple reflectors arranged around the suction tube, which makes the reflection of light more uniform and helps to obtain better lighting effects.

[0008] In some possible implementations, the bottom wall of the first recess is provided at least corresponding to the light-emitting component. The bottom wall of the first recess is a flat wall, which is beneficial to increase the amount of light emitted by the light-emitting component that passes through the first bottom wall and enters the housing, thereby helping to obtain a better lighting effect.

[0009] In some possible implementations, the bottom wall of the first recess is treated with a frosted finish to improve the uniformity of light passing through the first bottom wall, which is beneficial for obtaining better lighting effects.

[0010] In some possible implementations, the atomizing device includes a base, an opening at the end of the housing facing away from the suction port, the base being mounted on the opening, the base having a liquid injection channel suitable for liquid flow, and a light-emitting component located on the side of the base facing the suction port, which can prevent the base from blocking the light emitted by the light-emitting component and affecting the lighting effect of the atomizing device.

[0011] In some possible implementations, the oil cup is light-transmitting. The entire oil cup being light-transmitting simplifies the manufacturing process.

[0012] In some possible implementations, the atomizing device includes a circuit board, a portion of which is located within a receiving cavity, with a light-emitting component disposed on the side of the circuit board opposite to the extension.

[0013] In some possible implementations, the housing is opaque to prevent the internal components from being observed through the housing, thus giving the atomizing device a better appearance.

[0014] In some possible implementations, the outer side wall of the housing is provided with a second recess, which extends to the end of the housing away from the suction port. The housing portion is located in the second recess, and the housing and the bottom wall of the second recess are sealed together, which helps to improve the sealing performance. In addition, the housing can prevent the user from observing the internal components of the oil cup through the second recess, which helps the atomizing device to obtain a better appearance.

[0023] Some embodiments of this application will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0024] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 One embodiment of this application provides an atomizing device 1, including an oil cup 10, a housing 20, and a light-emitting component 30.

[0025] Oil cup 10 is used to store volatile liquids, such as e-liquid. See also... Figure 2 and Figure 3 The oil cup 10 includes a housing 11. The housing 11 includes a first end 11A and a second end 11B opposite to each other. The first end 11A has a suction port 10a. The outer surface 111 of the housing 11 has a first recess 111a. The first recess 111a is formed recessed from the outer surface 111 of the housing 11 toward the inner surface 112 of the housing 11. The first recess 111a extends to the second end 11B of the housing 11 away from the suction port 10a. The first recess 111a includes a first bottom wall 111a1 and a first side wall 111a2. The first bottom wall 111a1 is connected to the second end 11B, and the first side wall 111a2 is connected to the first bottom wall 111a1 and located on the side of the first bottom wall 111a1 away from the second end 11B. The first recess 111a is formed between the first bottom wall 111a1 and the first side wall 111a2.

[0026] Please see Figures 2 to 4A housing 20 is disposed at the second end 11B of the outer casing 11 and connected to the outer casing 11. The housing 20 includes a main body 21 and an extension 22, the extension 22 extending from a portion of the edge of the main body 21 toward a side opposite to the main body 21. The extension 22 is disposed within a first recess 111a. The edge of the extension 22 away from the main body 21 connects to a first sidewall 111a2 of the first recess 111a. A receiving cavity 22A is formed between the extension 22 and the first bottom wall 111a1 of the first recess 111a. A light-emitting component 30 is disposed corresponding to the extension 22 and the first bottom wall 111a1 and is disposed within the receiving cavity 22A. Light emitted by the light-emitting component 30 can illuminate the first bottom wall 111a1 of the first recess 111a.

[0027] The oil cup 10 includes a light-transmitting area, which is at least corresponding to the light-emitting component 30. In some embodiments, the oil cup 10 is partially light-transmitting, specifically, the area of ​​the oil cup 10 corresponding to the light-emitting component 30 is light-transmitting in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the suction port 10a. In another embodiment, the oil cup 10 is translucent, that is, the oil cup 10 is a light-transmitting oil cup. The light emitted by the light-emitting component 30 passes through the first bottom wall 111a1 and enters the housing 11 to illuminate the volatile liquid contained in the oil cup 10, and exits through the light-transmitting area to the outside of the oil cup 10. The light illuminating the volatile liquid can obtain a better lighting effect. In addition, the light-emitting component 30 corresponding to the first bottom wall 111a1 and the extension 22 is located on the side of the housing 11. The light emitted by the light-emitting component 30 intersects with the user's line of sight when suctioning through the suction port 10a, and does not directly illuminate the user's eyes along the axis of the suction port 10a, which helps to reduce the impact of light on the user and improve the user experience.

[0028] In some embodiments, the oil cup 10 is made of acrylic.

[0029] In some embodiments, the light emitted by the light-emitting component 30 is perpendicular to the axis of the suction port 10a. This arrangement helps to reduce the impact of the light emitted by the light-emitting component 30 on the user's line of sight during suction.

[0030] Please see Figures 2 to 4 The outer casing 11 has an opening 10b at its second end 11B opposite to the suction port 10a. The interior of the outer casing 11 has a suction tube 12 and a liquid storage chamber 120 located outside the suction tube 12. The suction tube 12 communicates with the suction port 10a and extends beyond the opening 10b. The liquid storage chamber 120 is located between the suction tube 12 and the outer casing 11, and communicates with the opening 10b. The liquid storage chamber 120 is used to store volatile liquids.

[0031] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4The oil cup 10 includes a reflector 13, which is disposed on the cavity wall of the liquid storage chamber 120. Specifically, the outer surface of the suction tube 12 and the inner surface 112 of the outer shell 11 constitute the cavity wall of the liquid storage chamber 120, and the reflector 13 is disposed on the outer surface of the suction tube 12 and / or the inner surface 112 of the outer shell 11. The reflector 13 is used to reflect light incident into the outer shell 11, which helps the atomizing device 1 obtain better lighting effects. The number of reflectors 13 can be one.

[0032] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The number of reflectors 13 is multiple. Some reflectors 13 are arranged around the suction tube 12 on the inner surface 112 of the outer casing 11, while other reflectors 13 are arranged around the suction tube 12 on the outer surface of the suction tube 12. The arrangement of multiple reflectors 13 around the suction tube 12 results in more uniform light reflection and is conducive to obtaining better lighting effects.

[0033] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The first bottom wall 111a1 of the first recess 111a is at least corresponding to the light-emitting component 30, and the first bottom wall 111a1 is a planar wall. Making the first bottom wall 111a1 a planar wall helps increase the amount of light emitted by the light-emitting component 30 that passes through the first bottom wall 111a1 and enters the housing 11, thereby improving the lighting effect. The portion of the inner surface 112 of the housing 11 corresponding to the first bottom wall 111a1 is planar, which helps increase the amount of light emitted by the light-emitting component 30 that passes through the inner surface 112 and enters the housing 11. Preferably, the light emitted by the light-emitting component 30 is perpendicular to the first bottom wall 11a1.

[0034] In some embodiments, the first bottom wall 111a1 is frosted to improve the uniformity of light passing through it, thus achieving better lighting effects. In another embodiment, the first bottom wall 111a1 has a honeycomb structure, which helps to improve the uniformity of illumination.

[0035] Please see Figures 2 to 4 The atomizing device 1 includes a base 40, which is installed in and closes the opening 10b. The base 40 has a liquid injection channel 41 adapted for liquid flow to drain liquid from the storage chamber 120. In this embodiment, the base 40 partially passes through the opening 10b and is inserted into the storage chamber 120. In another embodiment, the base 40 may be located outside the outer casing 11.

[0036] Please see Figure 4 The light-emitting component 30 is located on the side of the base 40 facing the suction port 10a, which can prevent the base 40 from blocking the light emitted by the light-emitting component 30 and affecting the lighting effect of the atomizing device 1.

[0037] Please see Figure 4 The atomizing device 1 includes a first seal 51, which is disposed between the base 40 and the outer casing 11 to improve sealing and prevent liquid in the storage chamber 120 from leaking out of the injection channel 41. The first seal 51 is disposed in the storage chamber 120 and connected to the surface of the base 40 facing the suction port 10a, and is connected to the inner surface 112 of the outer casing 11. The first seal 51 has an injection hole 511, which communicates with the injection channel 41.

[0038] Please see Figure 4 The light-emitting component 30 is located on the side of the first seal 30 facing the suction port 10a. Specifically, the light-emitting component 30 is higher than the liquid suction hole 511. By placing the light-emitting component 30 on the side of the first seal 30 facing the suction port 10a, the first seal 30 can be prevented from blocking the light emitted by the light-emitting component 30 and affecting the lighting effect of the atomizing device 1.

[0039] Please see Figure 4 The reflector 13 is located above the first seal 30, which helps to reduce the amount of reflector 13 used and save costs.

[0040] In some embodiments, the housing 20 is opaque to prevent the internal components from being observed through the housing 20, thus allowing the atomizing device 1 to have a better appearance. The material of the housing 20 may include at least one of polypropylene (PP), polycarbonate (PC), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS), or polyetheretherketone (PEEK).

[0041] Please see Figure 3 The outer surface 111 of the outer casing 11 has a second recess 111b. The second recess 111b is formed recessed from the outer surface 111 of the outer casing 11 toward the inner surface 112 of the outer casing 11. The second recess 111b extends to the second end 11B of the outer casing 11 away from the suction port 10a. The second recess 111b includes a second bottom wall 111b1 and a second side wall 111b2. The second bottom wall 111b1 is connected to the second end 11B, and the second side wall 111b2 is connected to the second bottom wall 111b1 and located on the side of the second bottom wall 111b1 away from the second end 11B. The second recess 111b is formed between the second bottom wall 111b1 and the second side wall 111b2. Along the axial direction of the suction port 11a, the distance between the first sidewall 111a2 and the second end 11B is greater than the distance between the second sidewall 111b2 and the second end 11B, so that the extension 22 provided in the first recess 111a will not surround the outer shell 11 and block the light from being emitted.

[0042] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4The main body 21 of the housing 20 is partially disposed within the second recess 111b. The main body 21 is attached to the second bottom wall 111b1, so that the main body 21 and the second bottom wall 111b1 of the second recess 111b form a sealing fit, which helps to improve the sealing performance. Furthermore, the housing 20 can prevent the user from observing the internal components of the oil cup 10 through the second recess 111b, which is beneficial for the atomizing device 1 to achieve a better appearance. The edge of the main body 21 is connected to the second side wall 111b2 of the second recess 111b.

[0043] Please see Figure 3 The outer surface 111 of the outer casing 11 has a third recess 111c. The third recess 111c is formed by recessing from the outer surface 111 of the outer casing 11 toward the inner surface 112 of the outer casing 11. The third recess 111c extends to the second end 11B of the outer casing 11 away from the suction port 10a. The third recess 111c includes a third bottom wall 111c1 and a third side wall 111c2. The third bottom wall 111c1 is connected to the second end 11B, and the third side wall 111c2 is connected to the third bottom wall 111c1 and located on the side of the third bottom wall 111c1 away from the second end 11B. The third recess 111c is formed between the third bottom wall 111c1 and the third side wall 111c2. The third bottom wall 111c1 connects to the first bottom wall 111a1 and the second bottom wall 111b1, the third side wall 111c2 connects to the first side wall 111a2 and the second side wall 111b2, and the third recess 111c connects to the first recess 111a and the second recess 111b. The connected first recess 111a, third recess 111c and second recess 111b together surround the periphery of the outer shell 11.

[0044] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 3 The main body 21 of the housing 20 is partially disposed within the third recess 111c. The main body 21 is attached to the third bottom wall 111c1, so that the main body 21 and the third bottom wall 111c1 of the third recess 111c form a sealing fit, which helps to improve the sealing performance. The edge of the main body 21 is connected to the third side wall 111c2 of the third recess 111c.

[0045] In some embodiments, the housing 20 is arranged around the outer shell 11, and the first seal 51 and the base 40 are located inside the housing 20, which helps to prevent the light-transmitting outer shell 11 from observing the first seal 51 and the base 40 located inside it, so that the atomizing device 1 can have a better appearance.

[0046] In some embodiments, the housing 20 is fixedly connected to the outer shell 11. For example, the edge of the housing 20 is fixedly connected to the first sidewall 111a2 of the first recess 111a, the second sidewall 111b2 of the second recess 111b, and the third sidewall 111c2 of the third recess 111c by adhesives or the like.

[0047] In some embodiments, the housing 20 is detachably connected to the outer casing 11. The housing 20 can snap onto the outer casing 11.

This configuration facilitates the replacement of the oil cup 10.

[0048] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4 The atomizing device 1 includes an atomizing core assembly 60, which is disposed within the housing 20. The atomizing core assembly 60 includes a bracket 61, a liquid storage cotton 62, an atomizing core 63, and a mounting base 64. The bracket 61 is detachably mounted on the side of the oil cup 10 away from the first end 11A. Specifically, the outer surface of the bracket 61 is provided with a locking block 611, and the housing 11 is provided with a locking hole 110, into which the locking block 611 engages. The bracket 61 has a receiving cavity 61a, into which a portion of the base 40 is inserted, so that the receiving cavity 61a communicates with the liquid injection channel 41 of the base 40. The end of the receiving cavity 61a away from the oil cup 10 has an opening, and the mounting base 64 is detachably mounted on one end of the bracket 61 and closes the opening of the receiving cavity 61a. The liquid storage cotton 62 and the atomizing core 63 are both housed within the receiving cavity 61a, and the liquid storage cotton 62 surrounds the atomizing core 63 and is in contact with the atomizing core 63. The atomizing core 63 is connected to the suction tube 12.

[0049] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4 A second seal 52 is provided between the bracket 61 and the base 40 to improve the sealing performance and help prevent liquid leakage from the connection between the base 40 and the bracket 61.

[0050] In some embodiments, the bracket 61 is detachably installed within the housing 20.

Each light-emitting element 31 can be an LED, which can be directly mounted on the circuit board 70 with its solder pads located on the side of the circuit board 70 facing the extension 22. The number of light-emitting elements 31 can be set as needed and is not limited in this application. It is understood that by changing the arrangement of the light-emitting elements 31 on the circuit board 70, the light emitted by the light-emitting elements 31 can be perpendicular to or tilted relative to the circuit board 70, thereby providing multi-angle illumination.

[0053] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4 The bracket 61 includes a protective portion 612, which is located between the circuit board 70 and the first bottom wall 111a1 of the first recess 111a.
